So I have tried creating a few videos for a while. I always ended up screwing up in the middle and in a spot that isn’t easily edited out and replaced. So I tried to do it again tonight and while it didn’t come out perfect or even ‘good’ by most standards it is nevertheless there.
It’s a quick and dirty video and next time I will spend more time getting a better quality audio, first time is always practice, right?
I took some time to create a basic guide on how to configure DCOM permissions for use with MFCOM.
When I first started using MFCOM I found it somewhat confusing to get DCOM permissions straight. This was probably more about not understanding the details of DCOM more than it was MFCOM. Usually if an administrator was running the script/application I had no problems. It was when an elevated user would run the app that I would have the issues.
Over time I began to identify exactly where the permission errors were and found a good system for keeping permissions in line. While the document is written with step by step instructions that most administrators already know, I thought it would be beneficial to detail for those who may be in the same position I was years ago: Confused by DCOM.
The document could be written much better and is absolutely a work in progress.
